Aphelium (Venezuela): review

Aphelium (Venezuela): Demo
Aphelium is a power metal gem from Venezuela.
These two songs are very impressive, due to the band’s knack for assembling all the elements of power metal so well. The songs work at a speedy rate, with air-raid-siren singing, and build up and up to the catchy chorus, with bit of a symphonic feel, and lots of sing-along moments.
“Cleopatra” is in Spanish and “Fate of a Promise” is in English, but the band does well in both.
I prefer the Spanish because the Spanish just sounds better, but the English song rocks, too.
If you don’t speak Spanish, it’s ok, the song “Cleopatra” is so catchy, you’ll be singing in Spanish and you won’t even know it.
